hi
ive been really enjoying artists such as cosmithex the last few days
its made me realize that although my traditional type synth sounds are coming along (leads/bass/typical pads,etc) an area were im very much lacking is creating these rich and interesting atmospheres such as this:

if amyone has any thoughts, other than use long reverbs and delays and get omnisphere id be interested to hear :)
cheers

There's nothing unusual there tbh.
It's a mixture of pads, analogue style basses and leads combined with more raw/distorted acids with delay and verb over them.
It's just a case of building up the textures. |

I can't listen to the track here at work,
but try out Omnisphere, it has some interesting textures to get cool background stuff going on. |

^ Trifonic's tutorial on pad design. Has some really great suggestions -- basically he uses the ES2 on default samples and Space Designer to make them mostly wet, and processes several versions through varying effects. Then you do your sub-mix and come up with more interesting sounds.
I'm looking into making these too, and I think using completely/mostly wet signals for pieces of metal, chimes, and other instruments can contribute. The reason Omnisphere works well is it has 40 oscillators, so each "sound" is already very layered. |

haven't messed around with omnisphere yet but absynth is great for pads
It's nice to hear some psytrance at a listenable bpm, like under 140. |

| absynth is very good for deep atmospheric pads too... |

| I mostly use various vsts (absynth is really good for pads and stuff), granular synthesis and the trick which is shown in Trifonic's tutorial posted above :) |
